Donna Karan’s Cashmere Mist Fragrance Collection

A fragrance to seduce the senses”, that is how Donna Karan describes her Cashmere Mist fragrance collection. She simply loves cashmere. Cashmere, in fact, has become her passion. The softness of this wonderful fabric brings forth unforgettable memories of intimacy just like Cashmere Mist. You need to be really close to savor the combined essences of flowers and woods.

The notes are predominantly floral with nuances of woodsy elements. Once you wear it, you’ll be covered in a blanket of soothing powdery-musk scent – that’s Moroccan jasmine and lily of the valley dancing in the warmth of sandalwood, amber and musk.

This beloved classic from Donna Karan has been a perennial favorite in the mid-90s. Women love its  embracing luxurious aroma and the way it exudes femininity in the long run. The floral notes are tamed – there’s hardly any headiness to greet you at the top notes.

Moving forward, the Cashmere Mist collection came up with more unusual yet interesting fragrances. They dabbled on darker notes and added a bit more drama. Black Cashmere is bathed in an exquisite blend of the finest spices and exotic woods adding depth to the classic feminine scent. Incense is the main element while woods and florals decorate the background. The progression of woods in the middle notes is akin to a sweet oriental fragrance that carries a distinct burnt aroma of caramelized fruits. At first you’ll be taken aback by the heaviness of the notes but after the darkness dissipates, you’ll be in for a surprise – an unexpected subtlety begins to unfold. Black Cashmere  is addictive and you might even find yourself sniffing your own scent to satisfy your olfactory cravings.

The most recent addition to grace the Cashmere Mist fragrances is the limited edition called Cashmere Mist Luxe. This eau de parfum flanker is due for release on September 2009. The modern interpretation of the original contains watery elements, bergamot, exotic flowers, amber and vanilla. Could this be a paler version of the earlier Cashmere? It would be interesting to find out. More of Donna Karan’s fragrances at discount perfumes online retailer, scentiments.com.
